 G           F
Daniel, you did it, you made me cry
           G           F
You spent ten days in bed when I asked you why
       G       F
And requested my whereabouts through tweets
           G         F
Darling, why do you bury yourself in sheets?
Well, I told you
G                       F
There's unrest in the House of Lords
Written on sandwich boards
    G                        F
Outside the shop where they sell your favourite
drink
                 G                 F
So what do you think you're doing telling people
lies?
The hope's going like Christmas pies
          G            F
But it's never gonna stop you turning pink

Chorus:
Dm            C          G
Daniel, you know it, you wanted to
         F           Am           G
Find a place on your own like you always do
Dm C G
I'd bear in mind
Dm               C       G  F
Daniel, you're still a child

Daniel's gone running, the trail's gone cold
You've been acting quite strangely
since ten years old
And when you were eleven
They said,
"You ought to pray to high heaven
you don't get caught"

Chorus:
Well, Daniel, don't worry, you won't be missed
You'll spend ten years in prison to pay for this
Ah, is it all worthwhile?
Daniel, you're still a child

Dm
You got a death wish, child
Dm                           C
Four cans of pesticide to drink
Dm
4:30 Western Time
Dm                         C
The boy's been arrested, why'd you think?

Daniel, you're still a child
Daniel, you're still a child
What is wrong with Daniel, he's no fun
You just wait 'till Daniel hurts someone
Daniel, you're a weirdo, what the hell?
You just wait 'till Daniel hurts himself
